This hang could be ULE-related. I'm saying this because it's the exact same thing that I see when I try a ULE kernel on my Dual Athlon 2000+ MP running on a Asus A7M266-D using regular ATA133 disks. Luckily, it's been tracking current since before the switchover, so I run a custom generic with 4BSD in it and everything works fine. I wish I could offer more debugging information such a verbose boot or a ddb ps when it hangs but I'm swamped with work from my job and cannot seem to find the time to debug such problems. My suggestion to Nick: Try booting an older release (5.1, maybe?) and cvsup from there.
